Gates Premium Molded Upper Radiator Coolant Hose

The Gates Premium Molded Upper Radiator Coolant Hose is a molded radiator hose, also called an upper radiator hose or coolant hose. It carries hot coolant from the engine to the radiator. Each hose is molded to a specific shape so it routes cleanly and fits the way an OE hose does.

Key Features:

• Molded construction: The hose is pre-shaped to follow the engine bay routing and avoid kinking.
• Reinforced design: The reinforced build is made to handle the pressure, heat and vibration of a cooling system.
• Coolant-resistant materials: The materials resist breakdown from modern coolants, ozone and heat aging.
• Dependable sealing: The hose ends are made to seal against the radiator and engine connections and help prevent leaks.
• Gates quality: Gates is a long-time supplier of belts, hoses and cooling system parts to OE manufacturers and the aftermarket.

Replacing an aging upper radiator hose helps prevent leaks, coolant loss and overheating. Hoses that are soft, swollen, cracked or collapsing should be replaced. Replace the hose clamps and refill the system with fresh coolant at the same time. Each variant in this line has its own part number, so choose the one that matches your application.
